Toulouse vs Nantes Prediction

Toulouse Form

In has been a bit of everything for Toulouse in their previous three matches, where they first beat Nantes by 1-5. This was followed by a disappointing 0-1 defeat against Lens, before an encounter with AC Ajaccio produced a 0-0 draw. In their last six Ligue 1 matches at home, Toulouse have one win, while they've drawn zero and lost five.

Nantes Form

Nantes lost their previous three matches by 1-5 against Toulouse, 2-0 against Brest and 0-2 against Strasbourg. Nantes claimed just one win from the last six away games in the Ligue 1. They also drew one and were defeated four times, as they were outscored by 12 goals to seven.

They went into the season as candidates for the drop, and unfortunately for Nantes, they have lived up to expectations. As the season draws to a close, they are still in with a chance of escaping relegation, though.
